It's 6am in dark and frozen Wokingham. -6 degrees outside.
I'm going to Warwick today for a meeting. 210 miles round trip.
I go every month and have always gone on my bike as negotiating the morning rush on the M40 is far easier.
Today I'll defrost the car I think and leave half an hour earlier.
There's the first test vs South Africa on the radio from 0830 so motorway traffic doesn't faze me (!)
Like your style buddy. If you have to do somethin not so nice,might as well make it comfortable

Got fed up with the grim weather yesterday (Tues) so had a day out to Liverpool, it was a blast from the past. Parked up at Hooton and got the train to Liverpool Central, I can remember doing the train journey with my mum when I was little (pre school) although I can't remember anything but the train jourmey.
Had a great day wandering around, went on the big wheel at Liverpool 1 (60m), that was great if a little chilly !
On the way back I popped into the leather shop at Liverpool central and bought a pair of leather biking trousers, fit great and only cost

Had a ride out to-day, Rhug farm (near Betws y coed, Llangollen, Ponderosa and back through Helsby Frodsham. Cold but dry and clear, saw a few bikes out but not many, enjoyed.
Take care, regards ianmck.
well done ianmck,sounds like you had a goodun. i do enjoy the bacon/egg batches from rhugg but i've noticed the lamb burgers also do well [maybe next time]. normally head for bala after there,it's a good runout with great roads. dave

Hi davyy, could have been me, had a good few run outs over on the Wirral last year, usually ride out with a couple of mates on gsx 1400's, my 750 is darkish red with gold badges and tank stripes, are you hoping to have your bike ready for the new year ?
Regards ianmck.
hi ianmck could very well have been you buddy,it was a solo rider and the tank was a dark red/browny colour with stripes. intresting that you ride with a couple of gsx14 owners,are they members of the gsx1400.org.club. as for the 550/ it's a big ask to have her up an runnin soon ,but defo want her motoring in the spring all bein good dave

Not sure what you mean with the oil as the 500/660 oil restrictors were in the barrel dowels at the base gasket level
my bad bryanj.lookin in the haynes it gives info on both 400 and 550,it shows oil jet pipes running either side of the cam,as the rocker was all ready off i assumed they were lost,but now i'm leaning toward the notion that their on the 400 only ::)did i explain i'm a novice dave..the trainee spanner twirler
